2004 Topps Star Wars Heritage: May the 4th be with you... Had to. Grabbed this as part of my recent eBay purchase of non-sport packs. This set was the first to cover the first six Star Wars movies. It keeps with retro design and card stock from the sets from the original trilogy.
Each movie's cards takes on a different design and/or color. I pulled one Star Wars (blue star field), two The Empire Strikes Back (silver), one Phantom Menace (red) and one Revenge of the Sith (blue/no star field). Normal screen grabs you'd expect but I like the overall designs and photos.
A couple from The Empire Strikes Back.
The dialogue on the back doesn't necessarily jive with the photo on the front. This is the back of the first Empire card just above. Below is from the Phantom Menace back and again doesn't match the front. A little different. A fun pack. I could see grabbing more of these or at least key singles.
BREAKDOWN:
5 - Total Cards
2 - The Empire Strikes Back
1 - A New Hope
1 - Phantom Menace
1 - Revenge of the Sith
I bought a bunch of boxes of this stuff years ago, because each box had a sketch card. Topps should release a new series of SW Heritage that includes the final three movies. Well... maybe they have and I just didn't know it.
ReplyDeleteI don't think they have but that is a great idea.
DeleteGreat pack, and Happy Star Wars Day!
